    Generally speaking, pain is a protective reflex of the human body, when the body is injured or a disease occurs, pain will occur in the relevant parts, so that the patient is alert, actively seek treatment, and avoid further damage to the body. The pain caused by a malignant tumor is very different from general pain and tends to be constant and severe. There are many causes of pain caused by malignant tumors, and it is generally believed that there are the following causes:

    1) Tumors of solid organs grow rapidly, resulting in tension and traction of the organ capsule.

    2) The tumor compresses the nerve root or nerve trunk, or occurs directly on the nerve trunk (e.g., schwannoma).

    3) Advanced tumor infiltrates nerve trunks and plexus.

    4) Obstruction of hollow organs (digestive tract and urinary tract) caused by tumors.

    5) Bleeding and perforation caused by ruptured tumor of the digestive tract.

    6) The tumor itself is ulcerated and infected, causing necrosis of the surrounding tissues.

    7) Tumor infiltrates blood vessels, resulting in arterial occlusion, venous congestion, and local hypoxia can cause severe pain.

    8) The tumor infiltrates into the lymphoid tissue, produces inflammation and releases a variety of chemical pain-causing substances.

    9) Bone metastasis caused by fracture.

    10) Scars from some surgeries, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy can also cause pain.

    Pain can be exacerbated by worsening of the condition, a series of pathophysiological changes caused by malnutrition, and complex mental activity.
